USING CERAMIC HOB
Each heating element has a corresponding residual heat indicator light. This light switches on automatically when the temperature of the corresponding cooking zone exceeds 60℃. Once a cooking zone has been turned off, the corresponding residual light will stay on until the cooking zone has cooled down to 60℃.

WARNING! During this time avoid touching the cooking zone and take precautions to ensure children cannot touch the cooking zone.

COUNTERTOP USE
Only the hobs equipped with rubber-protected feet, can be used as a countertop hob.

IMPORTANT!

• Kitchen cupboards adjacent to the appliance i.e., synthetic laminates, adhesives and surrounding edges should be able to withstand temperatures up to 150 0C without discolouring or delaminating.
• For adequate ventilation, a 50mm-60mm space is required between the rear of the hob and the cabinet. An air vent hole is required in the cabinet
• For adequate ventilation, a minimum space of 30mm is required between the upper part of the oven and the bottom of the There needs to be a vent hole in the front of the cabinet.
• A gasket seal must be placed between the HOB and the counter to prevent ablation of the counter surface (solid plate hob only).

NOTE THE FOLLOWING:

• Before switching on, check which knob controls the desired cooking zone. It is best to place the pot or pan on the cooking zone before switching on and remove it only after switching off.
• Use only flat-bottomed pans/pots with a regular surface (caution must be taken with cast iron pans). Irregular bottoms can scratch and damage the glass-ceramic surface. Never use aluminum pots on the ceramic Check that the bottom of the pan / pot is clean and dry.

• Be extra cautious as the cooking zones remain hot directly after the plates have been switched off.
• Residual heat indicator light will remain on until cooking zones has sufficiently cooled down to prevent burns and injuries.
• It also helps to save energy as it shows which cooking zones have enough residual heat left for further cooking at a low temperature or to keep a dish warm
• Do not use the cooktop if the surface is broken or damaged
• Do not allow heavy or sharp objects to fall on the glass-ceramic

TIPS TO SAVE ENERGY

Using energy in a responsible way not only saves money, but also helps the environment. Save energy! This is how you can do it:

• Pans use with thick, flat bases can save
• Covered pans with a lid, as uncovered pans use more energy!
• Match the size of the saucepan to the surface of the heating
• Ensure heating plates and pan bases are clean.
• Soiled bases prevent heat transfer and repeatedly burnt-on spillages can often only be removed with products which cause damage to the environment.
• For long cooking times, switch off heating zones 5 to 10 minutes before cooking is completed. This saves on energy.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

WARNING! Before cleaning, the hob must be switched off and all knobs must be set to the “0” position.

CLEANING THE HOB PLATES

• Do not use cleaning products containing abrasive materials for the cleaning and maintenance of the ceran hob.
• Regular cleaning after use will prevent dirt build up and ensure that the hob remains in good condition.
• Spillage (especially sugar solution such as jam) should be wiped off immediately with a damp cloth while the hob is still warm.
• If necessary, stubborn spills may be removed using a blade scraper and smooth top cleaner (Scraper can be purchased from most Hardware and Retail Stores).
• Clean the hob with a damped cloth and ‘Smooth top cleaner’.
• Wipe the hob surrounds with a hot soapy cloth and dry thoroughly.
